Drink it or eat it? Protein when you feel sick on a GLP-1

When you feel sick, a protein shake seems like the obvious answer. Sometimes it is. Sometimes it sits in your stomach like a meal.

In this episode, Accredited Practising Dietitian Becky May explains why liquids usually go down easier, the dairy protein that clots once it's inside you, how to read a protein drink label in ten seconds, and why liquids should get you through the hard days without becoming the plan.

In this episode:

• Why liquids leave the stomach faster than solids, and the two things that cancel that out
• Whey vs casein, and why milk-based drinks can behave like food
• The four-point label check, from someone who spent a decade in supermarket product development
• The hard day, in-between day, good day approach
• When nausea is a doctor conversation, not a food one
